I've got it going into a 24" Samsung monitor with a DVI - HDMI cable, so in the boot config I'm setting:
hdmi_drive=1
hdmi_ignore_edid=0xa5000080
config_hdmi_boost=6
hdmi_force_hotplug=1
hdmi_group=2
hdmi_mode=27
But I've tried a 27" LG with HDMI - HDMI, and it acts the exact same way.
Hi @gchucky,
I test with Pi-3B and ASUS 24" HDMI monitor and no issues. I don't add anything to config.txt

Moode was designed as a web-based, headless player. You need to have hdmi port turned on, plus the display options turned on in system control panel:

I was just looking at the touch screen displays on Amazon.
So any HDMI display will work? Are there any wiring from display to Pi required for the touch screen?
You can use both HDMI Display and still use web browser?
What display resolution is required to have the full view of the Moode GUI?
Is 800x480 enough for HDMI display?
Reason I ask is I tried an 8” android tablet, using the web browser, I cannot get full view
and have to scroll so I ditched that idea.

And all of that is configured. Again, here's what happens on boot:
* Visible on screen: standard Raspbian setup scroll data
* After initial setup, the screen blanks, and Moode Audio starts running (confirmed via SSH)
If I'm SSH'd in and do sudo reboot, the screen turns back on and shows the shutdown steps (e.g. Chrome shutdown). I added consoleblank=0 to /boot/cmdline.txt and raised config_hdmi_boost to 10, but that didn't do much. So it's really only when Moode is actually running that the screen is blank. Which is totally fine - but that means that the Local UI isn't working for me. Attached is a screenshot of the config. Am I missing something?

Actually sorry, one more: I've also attached the Xorg log (/var/log/Xorg.0.log) if you think that might help.
Hi,
Nothing suspicious in the log related to the display but looks like all the ALSA outputs are on and only one should be on. You can either toggle one of the DSP features on/off in Audio config or run cmd: mpc enable only 1 from ssh.
20180128 140245 worker: MPD output 1 ALSA default (on)
20180128 140245 worker: MPD output 2 ALSA crossfeed (on)
20180128 140245 worker: MPD output 3 ALSA parametric eq (on)
20180128 140245 worker: MPD output 4 ALSA graphic eq (on)
If your display just turns off then possibly any manual edits to config.txt are causing breakage or the display may not be compatible.
You can also verify that in fact HDMI port is on by cmd: tvservice -s
-Tim
You have to follow the component guide in order to display the local Chrome Browser on HDMI output.

The Pi touchscreen's 800x480 resolution wouldn't ordinarily fit everything but with a zoom factor of .75 everything on the playback panel more or less fits on one page.
If there's a popular tablet screen size that's not working well report it here or to Tim and something can probably be figured out similar to the Pi touchscreen.

I am unable to fix my issues with Bluetooth and airplay... it’s driving me nuts...
Todya I have bought a wifi dongle by - TP Link and a Bluetooth dongle by - Enter.
Also the Pi is powered from my Just Boom Amp hat which is having a separate regulator of 3 amps for pi. And I am using a laptop brick from asus rated at 19volts and 5amps.
So one thing that I noticed in these days is that if phone goes to standby then airplay stops within 12 minutes or so and I don’t see it in the option on the phone when I change songs etc after returning from standby. But if I am preventing it from going to standby this works longer...
Also Bluetooth is really funny coz when I power down the Pi from supply side and then power back on. I can’t leave anything permanently on if I am not using it.
then I have a random re pair and I have to do it manually. Which is really annoying.
Now if I use external modules I guess I have to switch off the internal wifi and Bluetooth from system setup. Right?

Hi,
I have a tidal hifi-account. Maitenant, I stream from the ipad to my moody rpi, naturally this goes over wifi. It's ok for casual listening while cleaning the room etc., but feel it could be better for serious listening. Is there an tidal add-on of some sort for moode or for debian stretch-lite *that works*? (Came across some that don't).

Hi, Rüdiger.
Yes, at least in the beta releases of moOde r40 (I no longer have any previous versions running that I can check)
1) go to "Configure/Audio" and in the Renderers section go to "configure UPnP" to enter your Tidal Music Service account credentials, and then back in "Configure/Audio" in the Renderers section turn on the UPnP Renderer.
2) on another device, run a UPnP Control Point app to discover and access your moOde UPnP Renderer. I use BubbleUPnP on my Android devices. Tidal shows up as a folder in the app's library (as does Google Music Play if I've enabled it too).
Step 2 is needed because the moOde GUI does not contain UPnP Control Point capability.
Regards,
Kent
Hi,
moOde release 4.0 is available at moodeaudio.org. The download includes moOde 4.0 Sources and a Build Recipe for making the custom Linux OS that runs moOde. An automated OS Image Builder is available in the Support section.
Enjoy all the great new features and innovations in moOde including the wonderful new Adaptive User Interface, Bluetooth Audio and a new OS Image Builder with resume capability. This release is based on the latest Raspbian Stretch Lite OS, PHP7 Web Stack, MPD, Airplay, Squeezelite and UPnP audio renderers and the rock solid mainline Linux kernel.
